Cars can go over them without issue at 60km/h+, I see it regularly riding along this stretch. I'd love to see how much money has been spent on rebuilding this road to the state it is now.
IMO this appears to be a perfect example of an influential, vocal group getting whatever they want despite little to no actual improvement in safety.
I don't know that the "influential, vocal group" got "whatever they wanted". They got something but as folks have posted, speed has not really been reduced and bike safety has not really been improved. And they got a streetscape that is quite unattractive. I wonder if the city has acted out of spite. If I lived on glasgow, I would want the street returned to its former glory and I would pester police to be present to ticket speeders.
